Never mind the fridge ...

"No self-respecting small businessman with a brain in the right place would ever employ a lady of child-bearing age." Godfrey Bloom, MEP

1. Am not a Lady. (Am, in fact, a slattern: want to come and look behind my fridge? Caution: Mice).

2. I encountered this attitude in the City in the early 1990s, when one of my colleagues told me he'd argued against my promotion because I was obviously going to go off and have children, and they'd have to train up another person (a male one) to take over.

3. Does that mean that if this is an early menopause, I'll get my rights back?

I could go on. But I'd rather beat my head against this glass ceiling. Anyone got some Windowlene?

I strongly believe that children (and adults) should be protected from anyone who intends to sexually abuse them.

But this seems out of all proportion.
